Cryptographer/Programmers in Anguilla

Anguilla was again the center of the financial
cryptography world (aka "digital money")
for the third year running, with the hosting of the
FC99 Conference.
140 specialists attended from 10 countries, including Russia and China,
8 of whom paid with electronic money via e-gold.

There were
many fascinating speakers and attendees this year, including:

Mark Miller of The E Project (a new open-source programming
language with networking and crypto built into it);

Ron Rivest (one of the principals of RSA
a leading and pioneering cryptography firm that holds many of the key
patents);

With the cryptographers returning to Anguilla for FC-2000
and some showing an interest in living here, Anguilla may
be on the way to becoming a Silicon Isle.
Several proposals were being discussed for Technology Campuses, Parks and Centers in Anguilla.
